Valley, the acclaimed alternative pop band, earned a Juno Award nomination for Breakthrough Group of the Year at the 2020 Juno Awards, cementing their position in the Canadian music industry. Formed in 2014, the group quickly developed a distinctive sound blending alternative pop, indie pop, and pop rock. Their initial releases showcased this evolution, beginning with their debut EP, ‘Car Test,’ in 2015, followed by ‘This Room Is White’ in 2016. These early projects introduced the bands introspective lyrics and established their unique artistic voice, laying the groundwork for their subsequent critical and commercial success.
Following their formative EPs, Valley released ‘Maybe Side A’ in 2018, leading into ‘Maybe Side B’ in early 2019, before unveiling their full-length album, ‘Maybe,’ in September of the same year. This period culminated in their significant 2020 Juno nomination. The band continued its prolific output with singles ‘Nevermind’ and ‘Hiccup’ in 2020, alongside the EP ‘Sucks to See You Doing Better.’ In 2021, their single ‘Like 1999’ gained considerable traction, preceding a successful North American tour alongside Coin. Valleys songwriting prowess was further recognized with a 2021 SOCAN Songwriting Prize nomination for their track ‘Homebody.’ The band’s trajectory continued with the release of their album ‘Last Birthday’ in 2021, which garnered a Juno Award nomination for Group of the Year in 2022.
Throughout their career, Valley has consistently delivered innovative music, garnering multiple nominations that highlight their enduring influence and growth within the competitive music landscape.
